Chapter 935 - 929: Bought the Wrong One

Chapter 935: Chapter 929: Bought the Wrong One

That means selling oneself to bury one’s father.

Indeed, beside her was a roll of straw mat, which seemed to be wrapping around a person.

Searcy guessed that the pervert Gu Youyou wanted her to buy was him, truly perverse enough, acting out the scene of selling oneself for a father’s burial.

It looked quite real.

"Miss, oh, truly pitiable, how much silver to sell yourself?"

Searcy, noticing trouble, saw a managing old maid from Chen Family’s side door inquiring about the girl’s price, which would be bad if someone beat her to it.

She immediately stepped forward and threw the bag of silver Gu Youyou had given her in front of the girl, saying, "Come with me, the silver is yours."

The young miss’s swollen eyes resembled walnuts, her act quite convincing. She was startled upon seeing such a large bag of silver, as if she couldn’t believe someone was willing to pay so much for her.

And the old maid who had asked her price was also startled by Searcy’s generous bag of silver, but after a moment’s shock, she felt belittled.

Having silver makes you great, huh? Does the Chen Residence not have silver?

She said angrily, "Where did this wench come from, didn’t you see I was here first? I’ve bought this girl, take your silver and leave quickly."

"I was the first to pay," Searcy said indifferently.

"I was about to take out the silver when you, this shameless wench, jumped the gun. I had already made a deal with this miss, and you’re trying to force the sale."

Searcy harrumphed, glanced at the walls of Chen Residence, and said disdainfully, "Lin Residence wants to buy this servant, Chen Residence also wants to, so what you’re saying is, I should go back and consult our Madam, right?"

"Lin..." The old maid glanced at a small door opening at the front of the alley and whispered, "You’re from Lin Residence?"

"What else?" Searcy kicked the large bag of silver to show off her wealth and grandeur.

The Chen Family didn’t compare to Lin Family in grandeur, and Minister Chen was two ranks below Minister Lin in official status, naturally not daring to compete with Lin Residence for a maid.

She then said, "Old woman, I did not recognize Mount Tai. Miss, you paid first, so the girl is yours."

The maid wearily entered the house, cursing her bad luck.

Searcy, looking down, told the kneeling girl, "Come with me."

The girl stood up, bowed slightly, and said, "Thank you, Miss. Since I’ve accepted your silver, Yin Shuang is no longer her own. Miss, could you please wait, I need to bury my father first."

Searcy twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "That’s about enough, what are you still pretending for?"

The girl named Yin Shuang turned pale upon hearing this, "Miss, what are you talking about? Yin Shuang selling herself for a father’s burial is a big deal, how could it be pretend?"

Searcy sized up the girl, now detecting something amiss, could it be a mix-up?

But in this alley, there was only one selling herself, right?

It was supposed to be at the southeast corner’s small gate, no mistake.

At that moment, a panting woman ran up to her, crying out loudly, "Miss, my family was struck by plague and all have perished, with no choice I came to Beijing to seek relatives, but failing to find them, my money has run out. In absolute desperation, I’ve decided to sell myself into servitude, Miss, how about you give some silver and buy me?"

This sly and charming attitude, this was Lun Yu.

For the first time, Searcy felt what it was like to have her head spinning, ending up in a blunder.

And this Lun Yu, wasn’t it agreed to be at 7-9 AM? Why didn’t he come earlier?
